Not what I'd call exciting...

Click to display Once again, Howrse stuffs cotton in its ears when it comes to player feedback. As if players weren't upset enough about the co man change and how it would affect teams, now they're getting rid of times entirely? Yikes. Some companies just want to watch their game burn, I guess.
|
Now that would upset a lot of people considering all the work they have put in.
|
Holy Moly! That is really going to put the cat among the pigeons!

I'm not sure if this needs a spoiler, but it's about teams.
Click to display I guess no one agrees with me, but in my opinion the teams shouldn't exists. Howrse is not really a team game where you're supposed to work closely with others. It's just an option. By having players who play individually and others who play in teams, you're gonna create problems and the current situation is a huge mess: everyone has different goals, different opinions and standards. The skiller race is so fast that basically every single horse is worthless based on their skills alone (meaning that for example a rare coat can still be valuable) and there's no point in bying a good horse today, since it's not gonna win any comps tomorrow, unless you want to take part in the endless skilling. Also the comanagement feature is ridiculous if it's used for anything else but the original purpose of maybe filling in when someone's on vacation (although it's still unnecessary). There are many games that are originally supposed to be played alone, but that have added some sort of team playing features later on and it's not fair or good for the game as a whole, at least based on my experience. Also I'm concerned about the people who spend hours and hours on Howrse blupping and farming aps. I don't want to tell others what to do, but games are supposed to be fun and if you take them too seriously, it's not good for yourself anymore. Online games give you nothing in real life and you can't put them in your cv. At least it's worth considering if there might be something better to do. I know deleting the feature would be a huge change and many players would be disappointed to say the least and some might quit as well, but it could also be a chance to make this game more fun, at least in theory. |
This message has been censored since it does not follow the forum rules. I cant be the only one that doesnt believe that this is true? The screenshot of the message, doesnt even look like its a real message from Ow. And I have friends who play on the Arabic version, who say they havent even recieved this message. So possibly fake? I also question how thing is written. Could we get some more proof? Why isnt the date included? Where are the pictures or the frame? And why is the text not written from right to left, as the arabic version does? Sorry, but to me it just screams fake. |
The Arabic message from Ow is a fake.
Please also remember that this topic is for features currently being tested for this server only.
Thanks!

I cant be the only one that doesnt believe that this is true? I definitely didn't believe it either. Teams are too big of an important role on Howrse these days.

rumors run rampant --- we need to /ignore all of them folks .....

I read the message content on an outside site. I can see why it would be believable - it certainly does seem plausible with the chain of changes Howrse has been implementing.

ShannnHBC: Teams existed long time before they were introduced as official feature for the game. If they got rid of official teams then people would go back to old school teams. And what exactly is "fair game"? No matter what people will always complain. If teams poofed people would still get offended because there is that one solo-breeder that wins a lot of comps and have better horses. Teams is a natural and standard feature in horse-games that exist from beginning or is added later on. The only "fairness"that exist in a game is the one you create for yourself within game-rules.

Chrissyhs:
Click to display haven't heard or seen any info about the pass horse-change being released soon. I know there discussion about them have blossomed up when co-changes were released, but I can't see any info you r proof this change will be coming soon. Admins said we will have a forewarning when they decide to go ahead with those changes but for now there is silence about it.

Please remember that spoilers are needed for anything not yet on this server.

Oops, wrong topic!
Sorry about that.

People stop talking about how terrible this idea is do it or don't but don't keep talking about it!

People stop talking about how terrible this idea is do it or don't but don't keep talking about it! What idea? Part of the spoiler zone is to share our thoughts and opinions on upcoming features/promos, that includes negative, not just positive. |

Not feeling like scrolling through pages of angry rants so can someone just post the next two promos for me again! If we can include prizes - divine and the divine perk, and pass cost estimates that would be fantastic!

Click to display People stop talking about how terrible this idea is do it or don't but don't keep talking about it! This is like, the one place where we can do just that. But don't forget everyone to use a spoiler. As for me, I can see the point of the co-managers not being on at the same time, but I feel that is going over the top to have to make the other player give permission--I'm having trouble getting into my friend's account ! And did some one say something about ending teams?!!!!!! |
Not feeling like scrolling through pages of angry rants so can someone just post the next two promos for me again! If we can include prizes - divine and the divine perk, and pass cost estimates that would be fantastic! The majority of the last few pages are discussing the upcoming promo. However, the next promo is either Click to display the water balloon fight (first I presume, unless it runs at the same time as the lottery) or the lottery and both of them are things we've had before with few changes, so there's not a great deal to say about them. The prize list for the lottery is in the first post of the previous page. Running at the same time on preprod is TWBF Click to display I did catch a balloon and I chose the send it on option. I was surprised not to choose a friend from my list as it just seemed to disappear when I clicked my choice . Maybe the same aging points balloon will just circulate randomly around us all Click to display The Vacation/ Water Fight. We should see the Vacation/Water Fight after the Insular Mine, and then the Great Challenge makes another return, but we have the Lottery this time. Great Challenge works much the same as usual. New Nordic Divine, Idunn Perk: When you get to 420 points, the veil is raised and Idunn gives you a prize: 1 x Water of Youth Winning the Divine: The instructions say it's a jackpot in the Lottery, and available in the Golden Fleeces,. I've asked if we'll be able to buy it with Clovers when the Clover Shop opens during the Festivities/lottery, because it's not mentioned as a way of obtaining hte divine in the instructions. Great Challenge Instructions: GC Prizes: The Lottery won't start for about a week, so we won't have prizes and clover shop prices posted for it until then. We also have a new feature being added: Click to display We can now search for coats with "all limits" in the creation directories, instead of searching the 100s, the 200s, etc. you can just select "all limits" and it pulls up all the limited use GA coats, or RCs, depending on how you filter it. Probably seems small, but I've wanted this for awhile due to how often I search for the limited coats, and I asked about it during the Creation update a few weeks back. It'll be much easier than searching through the GA page, too! No need to worry about the missing images on the left. Not all the data is loaded into preprod, so it'll appear normally in the live version.
